The woes of BN candidate for Permatang Pasir have given Tun Mahathir Mohamad (caricature, right) something new to laugh about
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed took a dig today at Barisan National’s (BN) choice of candidate for the Permatang Pasir by-election by pointing out that he was not sure if Rohaizat Othman — a disbarred lawyer — was qualified to run for office.
The former prime minister said that he was also informed Rohaizat was accused of having two wives.
“If you give someone a good reason to sabotage you, then it will be easy to be sabotaged and it will be your fault,” quipped Dr. Mahathir.
Umno has come under fire recently since its chosen candidate Rohaizat Othman was discovered to have been found guilty of misconduct by the Bar Council after failing to return RM161,000 belonging to the Penang Rubber Smallholders Cooperation.
The former lawyer has been on the defensive ever since the discovery was made public, blaming Pakatan Rakyat for attempting to discredit him personally.
However, Rohaizat has yet to respond to allegations made by his former partner Yusri Ishak against him.
Umno maintains that Pakatan Rakyat is trying to “assassinate” the character of their chosen candidate.
Rohaizat is facing Penang PAS state commissioner Mohd. Salleh Man in a straight fight for the state seat in the by-election on August 25.

UMNO should repent !! don't blaim PR, not PR ask you to con people's money !! is a national duty for PR to disclosed the misconduct of the Rohaizat and UMNO's lie !! people need to know what kind of people will be elected to represent them, of course not a con or a liar !!
Rohaizat Othman.....!!!!!!! Why do you keep blaming Pakatan Rakyat for attempting to discredit you when you alone "swallowed" RM161,000 belonging to the Penang Rubber Smallholders Cooperation (again, some poor smallholders were screwed big time)? You cannot blame others for shooting you when you are the one who provide the gun and ammunition to the other party... and said "I dare you to shoot me!"
This episode involving the tainted BN candidate Rohaizat exposes to the rakyat that Umno is a rotten, shameless party led by inept leaders like DPM Muhyyiddin who resorted to lies and threat to defend their candidate. Keep up the 'good work' BN, you will open up the eyes & mind of more rakyat.
Tell me Dr.M are you qualified to remain a human being after despicably crushing down the house of justice? Is the present PM qualified? So many satutuary declarations ignored. Rohasiat's case is neglible as compared to some others in BN. In BN no one is qualified to even being a decent human being.
The identity of a thief is revealed, is it considered a sabotage?
One must read Mahathir's line with a pinch of salt.
What does he actually mean?
Let me tell you.
Mahathir is saying although Rohaizat has breached the code of conduct and for that, he might not be suitable to stand for election, what he was really suggesting is that Pakatan is sabotaging UMNO's candidate. The daemon is not Rohaizat, it is not UMNO, the suggested daemon is Pakatan.
Toon Mahathir is a master of insidious envenoming. What he is saying is essentially no different from Muhyiddin, the difference is Mahathir camouflage it with a smoke screen of ambiguity.
Naa! mahathir. I know what you did last summer.
You are the most poisonous viper in the world.
